I have captured the TAB keypress using a windows API command, however, I do not wish to have this command called as soon as I load the control (because sometimes it is loaded with a TAB press). Therefore I am wondering how to clear the windows keyboard buffer in order to eliminate all keys (including the TAB) from the buffer and prevent the code for the TAB press from being called.

Thank you for you help and/or suggestions
